      This was two years ago. I am wondering, how would you do it differently today with the lessons you have learned over the past two years?

    Fits well into my space, I painted the back green. It's very easy to customize just the back if that's something you want to do. I would suggest sanding it first before painting, I got a little impatient. The shelves czcams.com/users/postUgkxM8H4CjCb79vzeyvgaFMdzmLm88oVFPMkare pretty small so keep that in mind if you're going to have it horizontal that some books won't fit. I like the snug look that it has. Good small shelf if you don't have much space, but not too small. Simple to put together, though you'll need your own tools, a screwdriver and a mallet/hammer, it's easiest to do with another person.

    Fabulous! Another great tip is to remove the book covers, sometimes the actual book itself is gorgeous and much nicer than the cover:) Thanks for sharing!

    I love the chic sophisticated look. The gold and copper pop the wicker baskets and balalances so beautifully. I also love how you popped with green for the farmhouse element. So inspiring and what a gorgeous job you did as always. Thank you for the tips. My favorite was the gold vases and coral! Stunning!

  • @ninaotan7811
    @ninaotan7811 Před 12 dny

    If one has this amount of books, one can place them horizontally.
    I have been running through a large amount of French interiors’ photographs recently. And it is impossible to miss the difference between the French and the American culture: French dwellings have a lot of books and their bookshelves serve the original purpose I.e. to store books.

  • @tracygarrett3952
    @tracygarrett3952 Před 3 měsíci

    Looks like a store. I think with that many shelves, upright books would look great. And they can be interspersed with objects and boos lying flat. Group things in twos??

  • @feb4282

    I wish there was a pop of color like turquoise or orange , the wall was white and the items were too pale in my opinion :(

    How can you call that a bookcase when there are more accessories than books? For me a real bookcase should showcase your book collection accentuated by your favorite accessories not the other way around.

    • @NinaTakesh
      @NinaTakesh  Před 4 lety +8

      I definitely agree with you that we need more books and we are adding them as the owners collection of art and architecture books grow!

    would be useful to know how much $$$ did you spend on that decorative items. That big coral alone would be like 100$.

  • @DorimantHeathen
    @DorimantHeathen Před rokem +2

    Very nice video and useful pro tips, thank you.
    Yet, when I watch this kind of videos about decor and interior design, I often feel both amused and disheartened... I wonder: don't these people own, like, anything?! Haven't they any passion, interest, or personal stuff displaying their individuality and character? Just (beautiful but) empty (and thus kinda useless) vases and bowls, a handful of books (bought, I'd swear, mostly and/or specifically just for decor purpose, the most generic "stylish large-format hard-cover art book" that probably no one in that house has ever even opened) and some preposterous little sculpture or useless "decor object"...? It all ends up looking so generic, like the soulless desperate show-off of very insecure and colorless people that need to make some sort of statement to impress others more than just to actually live and enjoy their homes. And failing, imho. These people buy generic cool-looking glamorous useless stuff to fill their shelves, instead of buying shelves in order to put their belongings on them. Why have all that beautiful large bookshelf in the first place, then? Put some painting on the wall, and put a couple of shelves for your few belongings.

    As a reader searching for organizing ideas this pained me right from the start... it is obvious that you cared more for the aesthetic than anything and I get that... but books get damage when you put them on their sides.

  • @EnsignRedSquad

    @cherokeedream1313 Před rokem

    Per this video...putting nothing on a shelf is an expert styling tip.
    You know just when I think I've heard it all, I'm reminded once again that absurdity is limitless!
    Now here's why the empty Shelf tip does not work....
    When decorating shelves balance and symmetry are the most important characteristics.
    It is absolutely impossible to achieve that when you have one undecorated shelf with with all the others being decorated.
    Everyone knows that so I certainly hope you didn't go to school for this
